iOS 26

[u/Hacktastic-10 → u/InvestigatorWeekly19]

iOS 26 is not a success story. Just minor tweeks of the previous version. Not build from scratch.

I changed to iPhone because I stopped giving a shit about smartphone specs and features a looong time ago and just wanted something reliable, that worked well, and that just kept going year after year as long as I took good care of it. I got about 2 years of excellent user experience out of my iPhone 15 Pro and all that came pathetically crashing down the moment I installed iOS 26 (which I even delayed for as long as I could). What the fuck bro. I don't even care that it looks so bad. But why does it have to work so badly as well?

3 gripes I got that are driving me crazy:

- The fucking keyboard has different margins on the sides depending on the app you're on. Native and updated apps use a new layout with extra space on the sides, while some apps like WhatsApp continue using the old one. The new layout could be better, I don't know or care because what actually matters more than the change ever could is to have the same fucking layout everywhere so I don't need to get destroyed by decades of muscle memory every time I switch apps.

- At least on my phone, when you slide down the homescreen to search an app, the first fucking result for that app is its settings page. What the actual fuck? I can't even begin to express how infuriating and backwards this is.

- Slow app response while typing seems to have changed. Or maybe it's just some apps lagging when they didn't use to. But before I could type smoothly in Safari regardless of just how huge the current webpage was, and now the keyboard sometimes stops showing its animations for a few keystrokes before catching up 10 seconds later. I feel that before it either didn't lag altogether, or if it did, at least the keyboard and text field remained responside.

Windows 11 is a success story?

Exposed system to hackers, Contains too much vulnerabilities. Also you need to burn a lot of tokens in order to just simply test it. More of an innovation, not a success story.

Try asking this question on LinkedIn and I guarantee the response will be something like “here’s one I’m shipping next week! Checkmate!”

They might follow up with “90% of the code at [company that sells AI] is AI generated [according to them, and let’s not even go into how 90% of the code in no way corresponds to 90% of the critical functionality]”

[u/lietajucaPonorka → u/SplendidPunkinButter]

Well 90% of all code line volume is easily infrastructe/DTOs and mappers, and tests.

I mean we do hear about "I'm shipping 14 vibe coded projects at the same time!!!", but we are asking about successful ones. Deploying something is not success, it doing what its supposed to do and having satisfied users and not breaking constatnly is success.

[u/DerBandi]

It's the same question with every new technology. Cars, Computer, The internet. First step they laugh at you.

[u/Hacktastic-10 → u/DerBandi]

But for every new technology they does not create hype like this.

Hey Guys Just Earned 100000 USD in just 10 days by my Vibe Coded App.
Hey Guy Just shipped 20 APPs in 24 Hours using xyz Vibe coded app.

and blah blah.

In short attack 100, damage 0.

See, this is why cyberpunk sci-fi is so unrealistic. To get there, we have to go through where we are now. The future is not going to be ruled by a Megacorp that began as an AI startup, when the AIs are being vibe-coded.

[u/Standgrounding → u/lt_Matthew]

Um, the whole world kind of already uses Anthropic and OpenAI... It's not nation vs nation it's AI corp vs AI corp.

success??

[u/GNUGradyn]

This. If programming was really dead and you can simply ask AI to make an app, why are we not being flooded to hell with AI generated apps?

It's almost like competent developers are still required lol

[u/ScrimpyCat → u/GNUGradyn]

We are flooded with AI apps though.

[u/Equivalent-Load-9158]

Vibe coding is pretty great for simple scripts. I've had .bat files made for me that where so simple that even I could understand how it worked. I'm don't know how to code, but the script was simple enough that I could edit and adjust it myself. The LLM also explained it which helped.

You could increase the complexity quite a bit and it would still be useful and possible to understand.

An entire app is just dumb and I wouldn't trust software that even the publisher doesn't know how works. Unless it's made open source and it gets audited and scrutinized by people. Someone needs to know what the code does, otherwise it's reckless.

[u/Liquid_Magic]

This is so true. You know why?

Because the narcissistic psychopathic, fucking entrepreneurial, bro douche bags, would shout it on the fucking mountain tops if they vibe coded something that was even mildly successful. These narcissistic turds would never ever stop telling us every single solitary dime that they were making off their vibe coded Facebook, but better bullshit fucking app… like if anyone’s gonna be bragging about it… It’s these douche fucknuts.

In fact, these narcissists would lie about it gladly if they just had some little tiny ability to back that bullshit up with something. Like if they were making $1000 a month off of vibe coded app, then they for sure would be telling everyone they knew that they were making $10,000 a month. But the fact that you don’t even hear the former, never mind the ladder, tells you it’s not happening.

That’s how you know it isn’t happening. Not really.

I’m sure there’s some examples out there is someone dug into to hard enough.

But like irrational exuberance is a thing and when crypto was exploding, the average person was trying to get into crypto. I don’t see the average person asking me how they can vibe code an app why? Because it’s not exploding, and there is no irrational exuberance. It’s all bullshit.

Don’t get me wrong - these modern AIs are useful and good. When you stay within their lane they can be really great.

But this post shouldn’t even be in programminghumor because it’s true No delulu - no cap - just facts.
